>>Hi John,

>>Did you mean to address this to me? I ask, because I have had to 'throw down.' I hope I never need to again. That doesn't make me a better or more loyal American, it only makes me an American with a different perspective.

>Yes, I was addressing you because I knew you had served and possibly had seen action. I don't think everyone has to have been in that situation to love this country, but I think it gives those who have, a better perspective. It's easy to read about something, or watch it on tv or a movie, but quite different to be in the middle of it - up close and personal.

>The main point of all this was and is that if you are running for president of this country, you should have the moxie to understand that everything you do will be put under a microscope - regardless of your party. Obama has exhibited behavior that is consistent with his racist, anti-american pastor's preaching. After 20 years of inculcation, how could he not?

>As for Tamar's position, I think she looks to see what MY position is on any topic, then asserts the exact opposite!<g> I'm sure she would accuse me of the inverse!<vbg>

>BUT, there is good news coming out today. Obama's numbers are falling again, and roughly 30% of Hillary's supporters say they will vote for McCain, if Obama gets the nod!!!!!!!! Go ahead and call the bartender in Hotlanta and order the brewskies. Can I get two of those lime slices with mine?<g>

You can count me among the 19% of Obama supporters who will vote for McCain if Hillary is the nominee. Here is today's aggro, in which prominent Clinton backers criticize Nancy Pelosi for saying Democratic superdelegates should reflect the will of the voters. (What a crazy idea!)
